[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: DirectoryDialog doesn't return complete

["Grant Gayed" <grant_gayed@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Bernd,

This works for me with the latest swt, and I don't remember hearing of it
not working in the past.  Please try with eclipse/swt 3.4 (
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.4-200806172000/index.php )
, and if you still see this then log a report with SWT at
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Platform&component=SWT
and provide some specific example(s) that fail for you.

Grant
